It's almost as if the scale is so small, that you can see how they, or any object, sink into the surface they rest, as if the surface were liquid (*is* it liquid?  What's it resting on?).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[blah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 17th 2006 2:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Brass dice shrunk to nearly invisible scale]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/17/brass-dice-shrunk-to-nearly-invisible-scale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/17/brass-dice-shrunk-to-nearly-invisible-scale/</guid><description><![CDATA[One word comes to mind: why??
